    Honest review of the MG4 XPower

    I'll put it down to my 'style' of driving, as if I charge to 80% I don't even get the 156 miles indicated above, the car is currently on 46%, 86 mile range !

    Mg4 software versions

    I'll be pushing to get mine updated at the end of the month due to bluetooth issues, I'm pretty annoyed as they told me it had the latest software (SWI133 - R32) and clearly there's been 2 updates since R36 and R41 :mad:

    %, miles or both?

    Make sure you haven't got intelligent battery heating turned on, I turned it off and my efficiency greatly improved, I do a 27 mile round trip to work and this WAS using more than 20% battery, since turning the IBH off the same trip now used around 16%

    Unused features, change my mind..?

    I've used the Sat Nav and it was OK on a recent trip (I used ABRP to find chargers), I recently turned the auto high beam off after it threw a wobbly and randomly turned on when i was following a big white van !! Always had the LKA on without issue. Launch control only ever used once (yet) sport...

    Bluetooth - Am I missing something?

    I know there are many threads around Bluetooth and software updates etc. as ways to fix. I have my car booked in with MG in several weeks time, but just wanted to check whether I am missing something in the process. I paired my phone (Samsung S25), no problem, next time I get in the car the...

    Charging Anxiety

    Well took it very steady on the way there and used 51% battery, so I was quite please, charged at an Evolt charger, contactless and once I figured it out (with the help from another MG4 owner) it was quite simple, only slow charging but I was in no rush. One tip I got from the other owner and...

    Newbie

    Well if it's any consolation mine broke down on the way to being delivered !!! but since then 'touching wood) it's been fine, almost 3000 miles in and going well.

    Honest review of the MG4 XPower

    I did a trip to Barmouth from the midlands at the weekend, 106 miles one way, started with 100% charge and I did take it very steady (kept it in Normal mode), got there with 49% battery and a quoted 102 miles remaining. 2hrs, 20mins driving with no stops and I found the seats quite comfortable...

    Squeaking sound

    My rear brakes squeak very badly when reversing and the cars only 2 months old, one of the joys of using high regen and rarely having to use the actual brakes !!

    Honest review of the MG4 XPower

    I've never reset the GOM, and the highest range I've ever seen after a 100% charge was 201 miles, which seemed pretty accurate as after a 100 mile round trip and averaging 40mph and 3.0m/kW I still had 50% battery. Motorway miles and 'Spirited' driving certainly hammers the efficiency, trouble...

    Charging Anxiety

    Will have to use some restraint on the M54 and try to stick to 60/65ish rather than my usual speed limit +20% :ROFLMAO: Electroverse, Ionity, Instavolt and Gridserve apps all downloaded and ready to go !!
